- I Am the Good ShepherdJesus said He is the good Shepherd. Hirelings run. He lays His life down for the sheep, on purpose, and takes it up again. One flock. One Shepherd. https://thedailyman.org/devotions/john/2026-11-12-i-am-the-good-shepherd/
- I Am the DoorJesus said He is the door of the sheep. Thieves climb the wall. His sheep hear His voice and come in through Him. Life isn't in the pen or the pasture. It's in the Door. https://thedailyman.org/devotions/john/2026-11-11-i-am-the-door/
- Found by the SonThey threw the healed man out of the synagogue. Jesus heard about it and went and found him. He asked if he believed in the Son of Man, and the man worshiped Him. The ones who claimed they could see stayed blind. https://thedailyman.org/devotions/john/2026-11-10-found-by-the-son/
- One Thing I KnowThe Pharisees called the healed man back and told him to give God the glory, because they knew Jesus was a sinner. He couldn't argue theology. He could only say he used to be blind and now he could see. They threw him out. Christ never throws His own out. https://thedailyman.org/devotions/john/2026-11-09-one-thing-i-know/
- Born BlindThe disciples saw a blind beggar and asked whose fault it was. Jesus said nobody's. God had a purpose in that blindness from the day the man was born. Then Jesus made mud, and the man came back from Siloam seeing. https://thedailyman.org/devotions/john/2026-11-07-born-blind/
- Free in the SonJesus told the men who'd just believed Him that real disciples stay in His word, and the truth would set them free. They bristled. They'd never been anyone's slaves. He told them every man who sins is sin's slave, and only the Son can set him free. https://thedailyman.org/devotions/john/2026-11-04-free-in-the-son/
- The First StoneThe woman caught in adultery probably wasn't in John's first draft, and we'll say so up front. But every lesson the old story teaches is taught plainly elsewhere in Scripture: hypocrites can't throw stones, and grace never leaves a sinner where it found him. https://thedailyman.org/devotions/john/2026-11-01-the-first-stone/
- Whose Teaching Is It?Jesus never sat under a rabbi, and the experts couldn't figure out where His learning came from. He told them His teaching came from His Father. Then He told them to stop judging by appearances. https://thedailyman.org/devotions/john/2026-10-29-whose-teaching-is-it/
- Why Doesn't God Heal Everyone?God healed the man born blind for His glory. He left Paul's thorn in place for His glory too. Healing is not plan A and sickness plan B. Both come from the same wise Father's hand, and neither one means He lost.
- Drawn by the FatherThe crowd grumbled because they knew Jesus' family. He told them their problem wasn't Nazareth. It was their hearts. Only the Father brings a man to the Son, and the Son raises every man the Father brings. https://thedailyman.org/devotions/john/2026-10-25-drawn-by-the-father/
- None of Them LostThe crowd saw Jesus and still didn't believe. So He told them who would come: everyone the Father gives Him. He won't throw out one of them, and He'll raise every one on the last day. https://thedailyman.org/devotions/john/2026-10-24-none-of-them-lost/
- Bread That Does Not SpoilThe crowd crossed a lake to find Jesus, and He told them why they came: they had eaten their fill. They wanted another meal. He offered them Himself. https://thedailyman.org/devotions/john/2026-10-23-bread-that-does-not-spoil/
- Bread in a Desolate PlaceFive thousand men, five barley loaves, two small fish, and a Lord who already knew what He would do. He asked Philip anyway. Then the crowd wanted to make Him king, and He walked away. https://thedailyman.org/devotions/john/2026-10-21-bread-in-a-desolate-place/
- From Death to LifeThey wanted Jesus dead for making Himself equal with God. He did not soften a word. He told them the Son makes alive the ones He chooses, all judgment belongs to Him, and every grave will one day answer His call. https://thedailyman.org/devotions/john/2026-10-19-from-death-to-life/
- My Father Is WorkingA man walked for the first time in thirty-eight years, and the religious leaders saw only a mat carried on the Sabbath. Jesus answered that His Father is working and so is He. They understood exactly what He meant, and they wanted Him dead for it.
- Do You Want to Be Healed?A crowd of sick men lay by a pool in Jerusalem. Jesus walked past all of them to one man who had been lying there thirty-eight years and had no one to help him. He gave no strategy. He gave a command, and the man stood up.
- Go, Your Son LivesGalilee wanted signs. A desperate official wanted a living son. Jesus spoke one sentence from Cana, the fever left Capernaum at that hour, and a whole household believed the word they had not yet seen.
- If You Knew the Gift of GodJesus had to pass through Samaria. At Jacob’s well He asked a thirsty woman for a drink, then offered her living water she could not draw for herself. If you knew the gift of God, you would ask.
- The First of His SignsThe jars were for washing, and they ran out of wine. Jesus did not take orders from the wedding. He showed His glory, and the disciples believed.
- Pascal's Wager Without HellStrip Hell out of Pascal’s Wager and the math still wrecks the shrug. Missing God forever is not a safe middle. And no man bets himself into the new birth.
- The Word Became FleshThe eternal Word did not stay distant. He took flesh, pitched His tent among us, and the glory we see is full of grace and truth — not a softer God, but God with us.
- What Must I Do to Be Saved?A jailer at midnight asked the most important question a man can ask. Paul didn't hand him a ritual, a ladder of works, or a prayer to repeat. He pointed him to the Lord Jesus. Here's the whole plan of salvation, laid out plainly.
